Cathy Faye Rudolph, Digital Artist, on "Planetary Traveler":

"Of the scenes I created, one of the best-received among the artists was
"Stained Glass", which married the ideas of broken blocks of colored
glass, glazes of once-molten glass, and a landscape of dry gray marbled
granite emerging from a gritty brown sand. Primary colors, and light
through glass evoke passionate undertones for me, and thus the Stained
Glass scene is perhaps my favorite of the set I made for Planetary
Traveler. Over the sand and granite terrain are placed fractured blocks
of mono-colored glass in primary hues, arranged as if for viewing by an
audience. The landscape is also littered with shards and sheets of
transparent glass, lending an sense of hazard to a journey through the
landscape. That particular shot shows caps and dribbles of molten glass
over the stones. Creating that effect took many hours and many cups of
strong coffee."
